Chapter 1146: Her Condition Is Acting Up Again!
After having had a whale of a time playing in the muddy field, everyone was dead beat, despite being in high spirits because of the fun and relaxing activity that they had. Although it was much less stressful compared to military training, they were completely exhausted.
They were still glad because they had never experienced having such unrestrained fun.
The outcome of the compet.i.tion was still rather unexpected because the two teams came to a draw. However… none of them cared about the final score at the end of the game even though they were all trying to win with all their might during the game.
At three in the afternoon, Xu Zhenyu brought them back to the base camp.
Xu Zhenyu announced. “The training for this afternoon has ended. We’ll a.s.semble again at 6 PM.”
Everyone was over the moon because of the rare opportunity to unwind and relax given to them by Xu Zhenyu.
“Wonderful, we finally get to rest for half a day.”
“We’ve been training in the morning, afternoon and night for the past two weeks. Now, we finally get to rest.”
“I must use this opportunity to take good care of my skin. The weather during fall is so dry that it’s making my skin dry and coa.r.s.e. I even got much tanner.”
Everyone chatted with each other merrily.
At this moment, Wen Xinya began to feel a little uncomfortable and hence, could not quite focus. After the enjoyable game, she found that her muscles started aching terribly and she was overwhelmed with fatigue.
Ye Feiyu soon noticed that she was lagging behind and frantically scurried towards her. “Xinya, what are you thinking about? You look so listless and lethargic.”
Wen Xinya shook her head and answered, “Nothing much.”
Ye Feiyu began chattering. “Since we don’t have to train for the rest of the afternoon, what do you plan to do?”
Feeling out of sorts, Wen Xinya’s brain began to get a little fuzzy too. After some thought, she answered, “I’ll take a nap! I feel a little tired.”
Ye Feiyu finally discovered that there was something amiss with her. Noticing that she looked rather unwell and was speaking feebly, Ye Feiyu frantically asked, “Xinya, are you feeling unwell?”
Although everyone was dead beat after expending all their energy during the game, they were all still rather energetic, unlike Wen Xinya, who was extremely frail.
Wen Xinya answered with a slight frown, “I do feel a little uncomfortable, but I’m probably just exhausted. It’s nothing much.”
She was unsure of what was going on with her, either. She did not feel ill or any discomfort in any particular part of her body. She reckoned that she was feeling fatigued because she had overexerted her muscles during the game earlier on.
Noticing that she was swaying unsteadily from side to side, Ye Feiyu frantically grabbed her hand, only to find that it was a little cold and clammy. “How could you say that you’re alright? The weather is so warm, but your hands are so cold. Your palms are covered in cold sweat.”
Wen Xinya asked in bewilderment, “Is that so?”
Next, she felt her stomach becoming bloated and sudden moisture in between her legs. She then began squatting.
She finally realized the reason for her lethargy and discomfort. They were all symptoms of Aunt Flo.
However, it did not come to Wen Xinya’ s mind because her periods had always been regular. This time, it arrived an entire week earlier than expected.
Noticing that she had turned as pale as a sheet and that her forehead was covered in sweat, Ye Feiyu hurriedly squatted down and asked concernedly, “Xinya, how are you?”
She was pale just now, but she wasn’t this haggard!
Feeling a little chilly and weak, Wen Xinya broke out into cold sweat. “Feiyu, hold me. Aunt Flo is paying a visit and my stomach is upset.”
Ye Feiyu heaved a sigh of relief after hearing her words and hurriedly helped her up.
Females tended to be plagued with embarra.s.sing symptoms during the course of their period. Although she knew how terrible the symptoms could be, she also knew that they were normal. Hence, she was much less fl.u.s.tered or anxious, despite still being a little worried.
Ye Feiyu helped Wen Xinya back to the dorm where Wen Xinya cleaned up after herself and changed into a fresh set of clothes and put on a new sanitary pad before lying down on the bed to get some rest.
Ye Feiyu scurried to the kitchen to make some brown sugar drink for Wen Xinya. “Have some brown sugar drink to warm your stomach up. I’ll help you request for a two-day medical leave from Commander Xu.”
Freshmen were not permitted to apply for leaves as and whenever they pleased during the military training program. However, girls would usually be granted a two- to three-day break whenever they applied for leave during their periods.
Wen Xinya nodded, too feeble to even say a word.
For some reason, she was overwhelmed with an inexplicable discomfort from head to toe, though she could not quite put into words which part of her body was uncomfortable. However, she felt more terrible than she usually would during her menstrual cycles.
Wen Xinya soon dozed off.
While in a daze, she felt extremely cold and bloated. To make matters worse, she developed a splitting headache and even began sweating profusely.
Ye Feiyu was the first one to notice her condition. Extremely frightened, she frantically carried Wen Xinya to the medical office together with a few other roommates.
The doctor hurriedly ran a physical check on Wen Xinya. After deducing her condition, he explained, “She’s experiencing these symptoms because of the excessive chilliness in her womb. Her condition will result in poor blood circulation and clotting of menstrual blood.”
The doctor then asked some questions about the training that Wen Xinya had been through lately, all of which Ye Feiyu answered accordingly.
The doctor said, “That explains it. Her periods have become irregular because of the tremendous stress that she had been undergoing due to the strenuous training. That’s why her period arrived several days earlier. The games that you played in the mud today were very strenuous, and you even stayed in the water for a long time. That’s why her womb became colder.”
Although the weather was still warm in September and the temperature of the mud was not too low, Wen Xinya definitely wouldn’t be able to take it after staying in mud for such a long time.
Ye Feiyu broke out into a sweat and asked anxiously, “Doctor, what do we do now, then?”
Ye Feiyu stared at Wen Xinya, who was pale, drenched in sweat and s.h.i.+vering underneath the thick blanket despite the warm weather.
She could tell at one glance that Wen Xinya was in immense pain.
The doctor said, “I’ll give her some painkillers. If it works after 15 minutes, I won’t have to put her on the drip. Likewise, I’ll have to do so if it doesn’t work.”
The doctor then placed a hand warmer on Wen Xinya’s abdomen before feeding her with the painkiller.
Ye Feiyu followed the doctor’s instruction and rubbed Wen Xinya’s abdomen, in hopes that she could ease Wen Xinya’s agony.
Seeing how worried she was, the doctor rea.s.sured. “You don’t have to be too worried. Although her condition is a little severe, she’s been taking care of herself and hence, there aren’t any major issues with her health. Once the painkillers take effect and her body warms up, she won’t feel so uncomfortable.”
